It is a nice idea. Any volunteers for compiling such a list ?

(I have noticed though that about 75% of such "features" are
 actually documented.  Most Mac users seldom read their
 documentation (if they have any ;-) from cover to cover. From
 time to time we see such "features" posted to the net followed
 by flames of the type "Hey %%^@## read the manual on page 23")
